<p><strong>Description:</strong><br />
  Common methods for handling WIKINDX creators who may be authors, editors, composers, performers, agents, artists etc. Creators are stored in the table <em>WKX_creator</em> in the fields <em>surname</em>, <em>firstname</em>, <em>initials</em> and <em>prefix</em>. The <em>initials</em> field is space-delimited with no punctuation. IDs from the rows in <em>WKX_creator</em> are stored as a comma-delimited string in the <em>creator1</em>, <em>creator2</em>, <em>creator3</em>, <em>creator4</em> or <em>creator5</em> fields in <em>WKX_resource_creator</em>. The field <em>creator1</em> is always the primary creator for the resource.  For an explanation of how the other fields are mapped to appropriate creators for each resource, see the <a href="../..//resourceDatabaseMatrix.html">Database Resource Matrix</a>.
